Compression Connections

Copper — Compression Thin Wall C-Tap TYPE YC-L Thin Wall Copper C-Tap UL Listed 90° C, Up to 35 kV 

Bare Copper

Type YC-L is a thin wall, high conductivity copper connector for making copper taps and parallel connections from #14 to 3/0 AWG. UL Listed and CSA Certified Wire Connectors per UL 486A-486B. Direct Burial Rating per UL 467 Grounding and Bonding Connector. Features & Benefits • Bare copper range taking C-tap that allows for less inventory as one C-tap can accommodate a multitude of wire combinations • Reinforced ribs on the outside of the C-tap increases the mechanical holding strength of the connection • Creates a compact connection that allows for easy taping and insulating • Connectors include a color dot to ensure proper die and installation tooling is selected • Manufactured from high conductivity wrought copper providing low resistance for excellend electrical conductivity • Connectors are clearly marked with stamping and color dot • UL Listed CSA Certified Wire Connectors per UL 486A-486B • Four sizes are listed for Grounding and Bonding per UL 467 for Direct Burial in Earth or concrete
